Brisbane from Wickham Terrace, 1880s

The Brisbane Courier 19 November 1883

A VOICE FROM WICKHAM-TERRACE

TO THE EDITOR OF THE BRISBANE COURIER.

Sir,-I would call your attention to the fact that the residents of this locality would be very glad of some means of conveyance from Queen street on these scorching days, and I would suggest that one of the Gregory-terrace omnibuses would alter their route and go up the terrace at 1 o'clock every day. I know of several residents of that place who would gladly support the movement. Trusting you will give the proprietor this hint at your earliest opportunity, I am, sir, &c, OTIOSUS.


Then and now...
